"Danish singer Nanna.B is ready with her debut Vitaphone, a 12 track album, all created throughout 2011 and early 2012. The title is inspired by a Basquiat painting, and consists of the two words "Vita" and "phone", meaning "life" and "sound". As Nanna writes in the album booklet, Vitaphone: "is a testimony as to where i've been, where i am and where i'm going; South, North, inside, outside, inner

space, outer space, somewhere in between and somewhere out between". The sound of the album is organic and warm with dusty beats and Nanna's voice as the two main elements . Most tracks

are with live instrumentation, but a few more electronic and some all-vocal tracks also contributes to the 40 minute musical journey, where the more experimental sides of soul is also being explored. This is a result of the collaboration with the main producer of the album, Damp, and with an ambition to create an album sounding like a soul concert taking place on a trip to the moon, the two spend most of 2011 in an homebuild analogue studio in the countryside of Denmark.

When downloading the entire album you will also get the bonus track "Arrows""

"VPD & Mr. Moods have decided to unleash their debut "Human Nature" LP through Dusted Wax Kingdom. Produced and self-released back in 2007/2008; the album is full of raw hip-hop/trip-hop beats and powerful expressive emotions.

"We feel there is huge similarity's between the Avant-Garde/Free Jazz movement of the 50's & 60's & the beat movement of Today. As both movements attempted to break down, extend & alter the conventions of their original genres (Jazz & Hip Hop) & were never afraid to experiment & improvise to create something that wasn't accepted commercially at the time.

C O S M I C | C O M P O S I T I O N S will be putting together a Series of Compilations dedicated to some of the pioneers of the Avant-Garde Jazz Movement.

The majority of this compilation was produced by beatmakers who strictly sampled Pharoah Sanders.

The next compilation will be a dedication to Alice Coltrane.

This compilation was made to be a Free Download. If you do choose to donate some $ to us it will be spent on bandcamp credits to keep this compilation free for the world to enjoy & too create visual edits for all the talented artists who contributed to this compilation. "

"Urban Waves is very proud to bring you the new EP by Danish producer Shatter Hands! Titled “Land Fly” this album marks a new step on Shatter Hands producing venture. He’s been cooking it for more than half a year focusing on doing more than he ever did before. And yeah if you’ve been following Shatter Hands since his debut, you’ll notice how he outdone himself on this one. The progression is obvious, keeping the original thrill of his branded synthesizers from outta space he went from beat making to fully producing. And this step, even if it’s barely noticeable to an outside ear, required a huge effort from the man. The result paid off, here is a new chapter in Shatter Hands story. Let us read it to you.

Oh and on the other hand here’s an exclusive news that you’ve heard from us first; if you like this EP, you’ll rejoice to know that we have a REMIX EP in the making with amazing remixers such as DNTE, Mute Speaker, Terry Tester, Prof Logic, Iller the Abstract Giraffe, Doctor Lazer, Zack Christ, Oddlogic, … Maybe more, maybe less. We’ll confirm that on a later note.

"Sinister flute with brooding basslines is what to expect from ABAGA Records' forthcoming free release.

The Mighty Cream's debut EP consists of a track with contrasting dark and light parts that lead to a pounding culmination of merciless bass sounds, and three remixes picked from a barrage of entries to their remix competition: JZR, with his spacious slower skank, Tisoki, with a hard hitting schizophrenic-like dancefloor-worthy version, and Skoshki, with a dark, growling variant, using chord sweeps that add a light at the end of the tunnel.

More music to come from this nascent duo, so keep your ears to the ground for this lot."

"Finally, the Fischerle's "Standards" EP is ready to land in your ears. In this issue we will drift between a "standard" dubby techno sound and a "non-standard", darker, more subtle and delicate sound of modern electronics. We believe that you will appreciate those beautiful, colorful pieces.

"Tab & Anitek drop the remastered version of their previously self-released "The Freakout Tent" EP for Dusted Wax Kingdom. The producers came up with a tasty groove salad cooked up with live instruments, mad turntable cuts, heavy effects and psychedelic soundscapes."

"After the stunning "Rainy Days" album, here comes the long expected remix collection sequel. "Rainy Nights" includes remixes from artists all around the world. About an hour long jazz influenced fairytale sated with sensual samples and romantic vinyl pops."

"Explore the magic of experimental music directly in this amazing performance by Marino69. He expresses the underground-style as something alluring. On the other hand, this style is usually considered to be on the edge of mainstream. Come on, absorb it and stand out from the flock."

"Welcome to the 12+1th reference of Cicuta Netlabel. After the hangover of the anniversary, we returned to the pitch to offer your free monthly techno ration. This time, we wanted to make a tribute to Spanish techno, so well that getting outside our borders, and which you have been listening to in earlier releases.

Start the EP with Victor Martinez, a classic of the north dance floors. After some early netaudio stage, appearing on labels like Offaudio or Antiritmo, he has managed to reach great heights in the European scene, releasing on labels like Pohjola Records or Dynamic Reflection. He is currently focusing on two projects, his own label (Psychoskunk Recordings) and his aka (Error Etica), developing a deeper and more visceral side.

We continue with Bran Lanen, this time under his aka Lifeblood. Bran is one of our fetish artists, and listening to his music is impossible not to get him to our releases. Under this pseudonym going to find more experimental music and thoughtful than usual, as a never ending tunnel...

Then we again have Jaume Muntsant, better known as Hermético, one of the most important artists of the Spanish netaudio scene, with years of experience and thousands of works behind. Manager of Inoquo netlabel, of the blog Oir Para Creer, partner in Intangible23 radioshow... his career speaks for itself...

Another artist who returns to Cicuta is Hecrom, whose appearance in our tenth reference caused a sensation among ourlisteners. This time not disappoint, as it brings us a track on the same line as above, deep, powerful, super mental ...

As a new appearance, we have Hector Oaks from Madrid, young artist who is making his way on the national scene. Having published in several national and foreign labels and passed through clubs as Danzoo, reaches Cicuta to show us his vision of techno.

Finally, and as always, from Drugstore close the EP with its own theme. Here we bring you a slower track, reminiscent of Detroit sounds, hope you like...

"Coffee Crazy EP was born out of Fanu's love for coffee – the black nectar of gods, the ultimate fuel behind every crazy multitalent, the sweet liquid that keeps us running in the long run, the ultimate nerve-firing ingredient that even Agent Cooper downed with passion.

"Perky Percolator Jam" kicks off the jam with playful vibes, rolling breaks, and a double bass line, making you feel as perky as if you had just gulped down good sips of that percolator brew.

"Above Waters" describes the ethereal vibe you have while on a coffee high, making you feel like you're floating above the sea.

"Bad Coffee" got its name from a bad coffee experience Fanu had at St. Petersburg train station. Fanu had to put the horror into some kind of form to get it out of his system, and this is the result.

"Espresso Deluxe" is a sweet combination of rich yet smooth elements that lets you savor the subtlety and intricacy you might find in a classy cup of good-quality coffee.

"Mocca Overdose". Another case of putting bad experiences into musical form. Fanu downed two percolators worth of mocca + a few cups of filter coffee in a few hours (true story!), and the result was very heavy and brooding that seemed to last a little too long – just like this track. Enjoy with caution!"

""The Stuff That Dreams Are Made Of" is the debut EP from the German beatmaster Pawcut. The release is filled up with adorable downtempo jazzyness, crispy lo-fi samples, dreamy cinematic atmosphere and phat drum breaks."

Throw in a cheeky remix of Shadow Boxing, alongside the pounding "The King Is Dead" or the more ethereal tones on title track "Phantomile" and you've got a 5-track EP destined for the DJ boxes of many, and an EP that we're really proud of here at Cut."

MAGIC PANDA is melodic, fast and pulsating in a dreamy ambient context.

We came across this talented producer on Soundcloud. Amongst all the young and upcoming, our magical friend showed some striking sound engineering skills. Combine this hard fought experience with a dreamful, restless soul and this is what you get: A magnetic, wonderful new world in which to lose ourselves..."
